But perhaps you can do better with the grammar. I'm here to learn.

I've already posted just that.

Kecharitomene, no matter how much you want it to be, is not a title. It is a participle describing something happening to the noun....in this case Mary.

Rabbi....title.

Master....title.

King....title.

King of the Jews....title.

Some Koine Greek female names are also participles. Like Amene, Hegumene, etc.

See here, where it explains about the participle used substantively, and translated as a noun
